after reading the enermax liberty review, i will not settle for any other PSU on the market because:
a. i love the design, its modular done to the pinnacle
b. the efficency it UNBEATABLE
c. its very reasonable priced considering what you get

I would say why do they need to provide links?
When its plain as day that some people are not as well read as others.

Your arguments and comments concerning the validity of 2 rails as oppsed to one are of what I would call a uninformed person.

I am not trying to make anybody mad. But when people don`t understand or cannot intelligently deal with the trith why does it seem they start calling people names?

sad, huh:(

Whuh? What "truth?" Do you mean the one where the ultimate, infallible God-company, PCP&C, would produce multi rail PSU's if there was any value in them? That isn't truth, it's a contradiction because they DO produce multi rail units. In all honesty Z, you should have stayed out of this if you didn't have anything to offer besides a big steaming cup of butt-kiss. You might find that actually reading a thread before commenting is useful as well.

No they do not make any PSU`s under 510 watts that have dual or multi rails!
Then they make the 850 and 1 kw with multi rails becuase a single 12 v rail cannot handle the extra amps.
From what I understand when you make PSU`s with the quality that PCPC they did not need to make a PSU with dual 12v rails.
They never lose any money or sleep over it. Quite frankly because when you are the best sales take care of themselves!

I see you're going to offer the Straw Man defense as well. What difference does the wattage of the PSU make? If forcing more amps through a single loom had been a design goal, I'm sure they would have figured it out. Now you're going to state what,s already been said as if it's a revelation while at the same time pretending that you know the internal workings of a company, as if you're on their design team.

Sorry, none of what you're said here is anything but conjecture and fanboism that've been self-elevated to the status of fact.

In essence, this entire discussion is based on a sad aspect of human nature. Some people require CONSTANT affirmation of their choices, sometimes at the expense of others. YOU bought a PCP&C, so anyone who didn't must be some sort of low-grade moron who deserves scorn. Remedy: If you're happy with your unit, whatever the name stensiled on it, just be happy. It's a lot easier than spending your time finding reasons to dump on others in order to make yourself "feel" good.

I never said that; but because you chose to be the jerk and have an inferiority complex; instead of using your head.
Your the one who made yourself appear to be the fool.
FYI- I happen to have chose a seasonic PSU for the same reason most people do.
It had to do with quality at a good price!
I am currently saving to get myself a PSU from the people at PCPC!

Don`t put words into my mouth. Especially if those words can be used to turn what you say around.

You've got a way with insults don't you? Especially in power supply threads. You and JY are like walking advertisements for PC P&C.

yes I am a walking advertisement for PCP&C. What is wrong with that?
There is no disputing they are the best hands down!
Cost included!
Yet there are other good PSU`s .....we also all know that!
It sounds to me like you have some sort as Zarubable stated--Inferiority Complex.
Not everybody can afford to buy a PSU from PCP&C.

If you would read my modular thread you would see that I am open to all comments.
yet others who own a PCP&C product will tell you--There PSU`s spesak for themselves!
You can`t beat there quality and accuracy and dependability.
They also have tremendous costomer service as well as a 5yr warranty.
And they recently Authorized the good people at Performance PCS.com to convert there PSu`s to modular...
http://www.performance-pcs.com/catalog/...roduct_info&cPath=166&products_id=1735
So far only Performance PCS are authorized to do so!!

Then you can`t beat there silencer series....
http://www.pcpowercooling.com/home/

lastly they addressed the noise issue with the turbo Cool series....
The fan will adjust itself depending on the temperature...
I undertsnad that is working quite well!

So yeah...a walking advertisement but as was stated in another thread...
There reputation speaks for itself!!

You don't need to sell me their history or whatever else you're plugging.

I have one already.

Coming from an Enermax, I'm happy with it sure. But I'm not going to keep sounding like a commercial in every one of my post about it. Plus, your cohort zarubable likes insulting people who don't agree with him or prefers a different brand. Inferiority complex huh? It's a power supply. I don't know how anyone can get a complex about a power supply.

Read slowly the responses and see who was insulted first.
I did not throw the first stone.

Actually what is being said is very accurate. But your response is very shall we say predictable given your total lack of being able to make an informed intelliegrnt comment.

This ppc guy is a marketing guy that will tell you whatever you need to hear so that you buy there product. I?m not saying there stuff is not the best, but marketing is marketing, if you don?t have something your competition does, one way to get around it is to say its bad.

This is how smart you guys think you are.. I just made a quick, and very valid point, yet in my pm box i get this very smart reply...

"hahah you stoppid d!ck head...you dont know f(word) about modular PSU`s" thanks Zarubable

impressed by what? your grasp of the english language?
or the fact that all you do post is meaningless dribble?

Seems like the only way to get any constructive conversation with you, one has to kiss PC P&C ass.

Power distribution issues won't occur on a single rail unit, and the safety issues are more esoteric than real, so that's probably your best bet.

Using the newegg advanced search with sli support selected and single 12v selected yields these results-

with decent pics of the available connectors. one of them is a unit very similar to the sparkle you mentioned in the op, except having 2 pci-e connectors for sli. you'll still need adapters for sata.

adding sata as a keyword yields only this powersupply-

The quality of which I really don't know...

Lots of changes in the market at the moment, but the advanced search at newegg can help sometimes...

PCP&C definitely markets good stuff, but you'll pay for the name, in spades. They've excelled at rebadging quality products as their own and providing excellent service for them. Service has been their true strength when dealing with IT professionals- call them on tuesday, say you need it yesterday, and it'll arrive tomorrow, which is the best anybody can do... great when you're spending corporate money, not much of a factor when you're a private party who's planning ahead...
